We had incredible looks at a friendly minke whale today! It was surfing the westerly swell then approached our vessel multiple times and even snuck underneath our bow 🏄🏻‍♂️ Minke whales are typically quite elusive. Often popping up for a quick breath only to disappear into the abyss. Todays minke was quite the opposite! Paired with an estimated SIX THOUSAND dolphins, we enjoyed a beautiful day in the channel 🙌🏻Thanks crew for another awesome day! #Minke #MinkeWhale #photography #marinelifeph
